During the threading process, the plug buckle 310 is spread by the outer wall of the inner sleeve 210 of the waterproof assembly 200, the front end of the spread plug buckle 310 is propped against the end face of the outer sleeve 220, the outer sleeve 220 is pushed to move along the convex rib 214 of the inner sleeve 210 toward the end provided with the internal thread 211 of the inner sleeve 210, the second blocking wall 223a of the second spring mounting groove 223 of the outer sleeve 220 is further pushed to compress the return spring 240 toward the first blocking wall 213a of the first spring mounting groove 213 of the inner sleeve 210, at this time, the outer sleeve buckle 221 is separated from the first limiting wall 216a, and moves toward the end provided with the internal thread 211 of the inner sleeve 210 in the positioning groove 216 of the inner sleeve until the plug buckle 310 enters the clamping groove 215 of the outer wall of the inner sleeve 210. At this time, the plug buckle 310 is retracted, the outer diameter is reduced, and the end face of the outer sleeve 220 is no longer supported. The compressed return spring 240 partially bounces back, stretches toward the second blocking wall 223a of the second spring mounting groove 223 of the outer sleeve 220, and pushes the outer sleeve 220 to move along the ribs 214 toward one end of the waterproof gasket mounting groove 212 of the inner sleeve 210 until the outer sleeve buckle 221 inside the outer sleeve 220 abuts against the first limiting wall 216a of the outer wall of the inner sleeve 210, and the outer sleeve 220 is no longer moved. At this time, the plug buckle 310 of the plug 300 is locked with the clamping groove 215 on the outer wall of the inner sleeve 210, and the outer sleeve buckle 221 of the outer sleeve 220 is locked with the positioning groove 216 of the inner sleeve 210, so as to realize quick plugging and self-locking of the waterproof optical fiber plug and the plug 300.
The process of removing the waterproof assembly 200 from the plug 300 is as follows:
the external force pushes outer sleeve 220 along bead 214 toward one end of joint 120 while the external force pushes plug 300 toward the opposite end of joint 120 until plug catch 310 of plug 300 is exposed, at which time plug 300 is manually pulled out. At this time, the outer sleeve 220 is restored under the action of the restoring spring 240, and the buckle 221 is restored to a mutually abutting state with the first limiting wall 216a in the positioning groove 216.
Referring to fig. 16, the waterproof fiber optic plug of the present utility model may further comprise a pulling barrel 400. The traction cylinder 400 has a through hole 410 at one end for easy pulling and the other end adapted to be detachably coupled with the joint 120 of the joint head assembly 100. In a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the other end of the traction cylinder 400 is provided with an internal thread 420, and the internal thread 420 is disposed corresponding to the external thread 122 of the joint 120, so as to realize the threaded connection of the traction cylinder 400 and the joint 120.
Referring to fig. 17, in a pipe penetration or wall penetration operation state, the process of assembling the traction drum 400 and the connector assembly 100 into a pipe penetration is as follows:
the internal threads 420 of the pull cup 400 are interlocked with the external threads 122 of the connector 120 of the connector assembly 100. At this time, the joint sealing ring 130 of the joint assembly 100 and the inner wall of the traction cylinder 400 are pressed against each other to form a seal (refer to fig. 18). The pulling tool is installed on the through hole 410 of the pulling cylinder 400, and the connector assembly 100 is pulled by the pulling tool, so that the pipe penetrating or wall penetrating work is completed.
In summary, with the waterproof optical fiber plug of the present utility model, the connector 120 of the connector assembly 100 is connected with the pulling cylinder 400 at the time of pipe penetration or wall penetration; in the waterproof working state, the traction cylinder 400 is disassembled, the joint 120 is connected with the inner sleeve 210 of the waterproof assembly 200, and the joint 120 is screwed; when the adapter is not required to be connected, the plug 300 is inserted, so that waterproof sealing and self-locking can be realized; when the adapter is required to be connected, the plug 300 is pulled out, and then the waterproof optical fiber plug is plugged into the adapter.
It will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art that the foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of the utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model, but any modifications, equivalents, improvements or alternatives falling within the spirit and principles of the utility model are intended to be included within the scope of the utility model.
